MSS germination plate - grown out for 17 days

I already transferred T1 from other plates in the group (20 total)

This one had so many things going on, I didn't use it to transfer.

I did keep it around to observe and learn.

I would like to understand what I am seeing and why the myc in one section seems to be turning yellow.

Is this metabolites from stress?

Even though there are inconsistencies i'm putting these to grain- i think they look clean? Looking for a good clone to run. One of them i've transferred out of.



My best looking BBM plates so far, took a while to get them like this, but these are only the top 3 of a group of idk how many plates so far. Transferred out of that last pic but putting it to grain as well.

Wicked looking culture on the bottom left Culling, what variety are those? MS?


And hard to tell from that pic Tacoslut. Wouldn't be surprised if there is a bacterial presence but from what I can see, it looks there's very clearly some kind of competing mold growth. IDing white molds, especially on germ plates is tricky as hell but you can start to develop an eye for it. Here's an example from a recent GT germ plate:


Excuse the shitty pic however you can see the white growth at the top of the plate from 11 to 12 o clock that looks just like cube myc in fact isn't cube myc for two reasons. First, I didn't streak there and you can see that it's obviously growing outside of my streak pattern, and more importantly, the fact there's a line of inhibition or a clear boundary forming at the border between that growth and the rest of the growth on the plate clues you in to that fact as well. You can see that where the cube myc started growing the mold grew around it and there is a clear border where you can see that happening.


Moshe I'd feel pretty confident putting pretty much all those Melmak to grain, and those BBM are looking fantastic. Nice plates!

I've recently been less and less worried about putting less than perfect looking plates to grain. Based on comments from other people and just realizing that the look of a culture can only tell you so much and that ugly ass cultures can perform quite well, as long as it's growing aggressively and I'm relatively confident that it's clean, I'll put it to grain. Obviously I still watch out for weird growth caused by contaminants but cube myc can look a lotta different ways depending on a lotta different things so I don't worry about chasing down picture perfect rhizo all the time. And if you already knew that excuse me for being long winded lol.



Got successful germination on this Tidalwave, Avery, Melmak, and Leucistic Golden Teacher and took transfers to new plates last night.


And here's some RW and AA+ that was transferred from a cold storage plate:


I thought RW was almost always pretty tomentose, nice to see some rhizo as well.

@ Moshe The first 3 pics are a little hard to see but I can't see any issues.

The BBM plates are lucious.

Hey @moshe1, did you by chance get that BBM from me? If so, its a hell of a producer!

Edit: they all look amazing btw... lol

If this is the cross I shared I would like to give you a little update after a few more tubs and transfers:

- Spores have been rust colored like Colombian Rust
- MY fruits did drop spores, around 2 or 3 days later than usual cubes

In my experience this cross is mostly RW in fruits but just a little like Avery on the delay of spore drop and rhizo on plates. Just IME. Please share what comes of everything :cheers:

Also if you meant AA+ instead of Avery Albino x Rusty Whyte ignore me completely!  :facepalm3:

a bit of the picture res is also cause the myc is fuzzy, making it look even more blurred. Thanks!

Yup I believe so!  i actually remember you telling me they were good fruiters, fruit size and total weights, so they were the first to go onto agar once i started agar work.  i've been fighting an agar battle for weeks, so i'm hoping to get these all looking clean and testing so i can grab a clone ASAP- a good producer would be perfect right about now brother lol thank you again, many times over. Hoping these BBMs and Melmaks will save my ass- had a lot of wasted resources on a project that went bad earlier in the year.


What do you guys like to do next? You have a bunch of plates that are ready for grain. Whats in-between that and having the clone genetics saved in the freezer to use for a long period of time? I got my vials ready for slants when the time comes.

Hey Lenz,

How do you transfer those perfect circles? I thought I saw the answer in a recent thread, maybe this, but can't find it yet.

If it's a hassle, say so and I'll keep looking.

cheers,

Not at all, it's a great agar resource: D3's agar tek

I just use a set of reusable stainless steel straws, works great, don't need to get anything special.

These are actually T3 transfers from some older stuff, non crossed just classic AA+ and RW I had in the fridge for a bit while I couldn't do any cult work but I'm about to get that cross on agar real soon!

Looking forward to working with it, will be my first time working with a cross and will definitely post my progress  :cheers:

You use a biopsy punch of sorts, I use a stainless straw.

I did see that. I just can't remember how to get the the transfer out of the straw and onto the plate. The method adds even more aesthetic appeal to good plates.

It's all about how fast and how hot the straw is.
I also find the thickness of the poured agar plays a part in the slug getting stuck.
